I feel like some would enjoy being able to do predictions on WGI/TCGC as well as marching band.

As somebody relatively new to looking at Winter Guard but familiar with band and predictions, predicting something like WGI in the current format seems difficult, and would likely need a more robust system of prediction like its own website.

 

I dont think its a bad idea, heck I think somebody with some coding experience could easily set up a website that splits the predictions by contest, THEN by classification just so you dont have to predict 30+ groups placements at a time, since generally most WG contests dont have a finals. But I think hosting it on TXBands or Hornranks website would need some heavy restructuring

We're certainly open to updating how the game works to support Winter Guard, but I'd need some recommendations on how to make it work. Also, our traffic after marching season declines significantly so I'm not sure how much interest there would be.

This could be because it's built mostly for the band. All of the services TxBands offers are mostly targeted at marching band. I think adding more things to do and pushing the place for color guard would work to change that. I know lots of crazy drumline and guard people who would love it if you added more systems and places for them.

I have an idea-ish, you could make it so that it works as normal, however, you add a tag of some sort, saying their class you can choose from these when making the page, next to where you input the names. Then people could predict the classifications for a contest and have tabs at the top, of the little pop-up when looking at them, for the different classifications. It is not overly complicated and definitely would need to be worked out better; it's more of a framework adjustment/modification of what you guys already have.  Feel free to give feedback why it wouldn't work!  Also, the predictions is what I think most people are here for, soo that's what I am focusing on.
